O'Shea Dealing With the Russian Tag Team
Alexey Makarov, Andrey Zaichenko and Vladimir Shchemelev are three Russian poker giants, all seated at the same table here on Day 3 of Event #46. Sandwiched between the three of them is John O'Shea, who seems to be having a bit of trouble adapting to them.
In one hand, O'Shea opened to 25,000. In the next seat over Shchemelev potted it to 90,000. Action folded back around to O'Shea who let his hand go.
“Maybe that will teach you not to steal my big blind,” Makarov said to O'Shea. “If you try to steal my big blind, my friend will raise you.”
“I've to got deal with the Russian tag team here,” O'Shea joked. “I look at him you punch me, I look at you and he punches me!”
O'Shea is down a bit from where he started, is still alive despite being the tasty meat inside a Russian sandwich.
